With all the gushing people do over movie cars and movie chases, it's always irritated me, that the soundtrack from Bullitt was so bad. The stupid double clutching, and that car HAD to have a 28 speed gearbox, according to all the shifting that was done.

So this morning, eating breakfast, I came across a re-run of Robert Urich, "Vegas" ---you know "Vegas" as "Dan Tanna" and the little red 57 T-bird.

An added bonus is that Christina Ferrare was in this, and I can guarantee you that she was "hot."

................But anyway,................at one point "the bad guy" complete with shotgun in his '70 Plymouth WHICH SOUNDED REMARKABLY just like the McQueen 'Stang in Bullitt, complete with double clutch shifting,..............and unbelievably........AT LEAST ONE shift while not moving any part of his body AND looking over his shoulder to see if "Dan Tanna" was gaining on him.

Of course "back then" '70 Plymouths were not worth much of anything, so OF COURSE it ended up in a double forward back flip into a "disabled" car handily left in the middle of the road and "everybody" immediately burst into flame.

Well. I did my duty. I did a search. I could not find any photos of the Plymouth

Yes but remember Dan Tanna parked his T-Bird in his living room, how cool was that??
 
The Mustang soundtrack was actually a GT-40, not a 390-4v. What angers me to this day is ending that unibody twisting burnout after the left turn in front of the Satellite. That is some of the sweetest unsilenced AVS music ever heard. They should have let the camera roll following the Charger up the street.
